Anudike-Uzomah (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve by the Chiefs on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The defensive end suffered the injury during Friday's preseason loss to the Seahawks. A first-round pick in 2023, Anudike-Uzomah has recorded just 3.0 sacks and three starts across 34 regular-season contests, and now, his immediate availability is in doubt. If he's able to return, he should again play a depth role for the Chiefs.

Anudike-Uzomah suffered a hamstring injury in Friday's preseason loss to the Seahawks, Harold R. Kuntz of Fox4 News Kansas City reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anudike-Uzomah recorded two tackles (both solo) prior to his exit. The 2023 first-round pick has logged just 3.0 sacks across 34 regular-season contests over his first two NFL campaigns and has logged just three starts. He's likely to make the Chiefs' 53-man roster this season if healthy but again is expected to work in a depth role.

Anudike-Uzomah logged 27 tackles (16 solo), including 2.5 sacks, across 17 regular-season appearances. He added five tackles (three solo), including one sack, in three postseason games.
EDGE Analysis
Anudike-Uzomah didn't see a significant jump in production from his 2023 rookie season. The first-round pick served as the Chiefs' fourth defensive end behind George Karlaftis, Mike Danna and Charles Omenihu, as these three played the majority of snaps when healthy. With Omenihu currently slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, it's possible that Anudike-Uzomah could step into a bigger role in 2025.

Anudike-Uzomah (thumb/hamstring) took part in OTAs last Thursday, Charles Goldman of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anudike-Uzomah appears to have recovered from the thumb surgery he underwent before the draft. Head coach Andy Reid also said that the 2023 first-round pick has been dealing with a hamstring injury, but Anudike-Uzomah has put that issue behind him as well. Now that he's healthy, Anudike-Uzomah will look to help Kansas City defend their Super Bowl title during the upcoming season.

EDGE Analysis
Head coach Andy Reid revealed that Anudike-Uzomah had surgery on his thumb before being selected 31st overall in the draft. The 21-year-old has been a limited participant in minicamp so far, but he hopes to be fully recovered in time for the start of OTAs.
